S4E9: Sixteen Candles Region 2v15(Footloose/48 Hrs.)

from The 80s-est · host The 80s-est

It’s 1984 vs. 1982, and the SIXTEEN CANDLES Region is throwing down! In one corner: Footloose, the movie that made Kevin Bacon a household name and convinced America that dancing could start a revolution! In the other: 48 Hrs., the buddy-cop thriller that launched Eddie Murphy into the stratosphere and taught us all that you can get a lot done in two days if you’re mad enough about it. One has a legendary soundtrack, the other has a bar scene people are still talking about. Both are quintessential 80s. So which one is MORE 80s? There is a time for all things under the sun, and now, there is a time to vote: NOW! This is a public episode.
